| 30 | | Hi Kristen, |
| 31 | | |
| 32 | | Was some mesh decimation or editing done on the per-vertex .wrl after being output from ChimeraX? Because it looks as if two coincident vertices at the midpoint of the bond between the red and yellow atoms got combined into a single vertex. The original two vertices would have one red and the other yellow to give a crisp color boundary. But if they were merged and one of the two colors was then lost then that would explain this artifact. Any mesh editing would have to take account of the per- vertex colors and not merge vertices of different colors. |
| 33 | | |
| 34 | | If no mesh editing was done and the images you attached are directly rendered from the ChimeraX .wrl then I would want to know what VRML renderer made the image. It may be that that VRML render does the vertex combining that messes up the colors. |
| 35 | | |
| 36 | | I am pretty sure ChimeraX is outputing a sharp color boundary and if you showed the .wrl it outputs in an faithful VRML viewer it will show the sharp boundary. |
